Swim With Manatees In Crystal River, Florida

Overview

Our guided "Swim With the Manatees" tour is our number one attraction. You get the opportunity to experience manatees up close and personal in their natural habitat on colder days. Manatee season runs from November 15th through March 31st each year. We have amazing local guides who know our waters very well so you could spot several manatees in the right conditions. The colder the temperatures, the more manatees you will see. On warmer days/weeks, some tours get zero manatees because it is a natural environment and they are not always around to see. The manatees head back out to the Gulf of Mexico where the food supply is more bountiful for them. You will learn the right way to interact with these amazing animals through passive observation and learn all about our ecosystem here in Crystal River.

Jessica was our guide and did a great job of describing the bay, springs and local wildlife. She was very enthusiastic about conservation and the Company as a whole was very well run and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

It is early in the season so we only saw 5 manatees but it was a very cool experience. The kayak trip was so pretty.
